Then a few days ago I received an interesting box in the mail.<br />Who doesn't like to receive boxes? This was a small one, and I had not ordered anything, so it was a complete surprise. I opened it and there was a beautifully packaged .....how should I say it.....what should I call it?????<br />IT WAS DEODORANT...............hmmmm is someone trying to tell me something?<br />It was from the people at DOVE. A new product, had not even hit the market yet, although it may be there now.<br />DOVE ULTIMATE VISIBLY SMOOTH DEODORANT BAR.<br />Beautiful soft pink packaging, and the scent is sooooooo heavenly. I have not used it yet, but it is supposed to make your underarms look smoother, the longer you use it, the smoother you look, and the smooth look will last longer. I am anxious to get started. I have a bunch of coupons for<br />$2.00 off, and they do not expire until December. Leave a comment and I'll send you one.<br />At least I will have reason to check this blog, and maybe even add something new.<br />See y'all<br />Barbarabopashehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15609708096992699225noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272249706470388841.post-29709800546797549002008-08-16T06:12:00.000-07:002008-08-16T06:21:09.086-07:00I miss you guys!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XxjqzNcm5fM/SKbTAQgvqqI/AAAAAAAAALA/RtdS__e0hPo/s1600-h/DSC00522.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/_XxjqzNcm5fM/SKbTAQgvqqI/AAAAAAAAALA/RtdS__e0hPo/s400/DSC00522.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5235103618250549922" /></a><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">I know that life has gotten in the way and this <span style="font-style:italic;">poor</span> blog has paid the ultimate price...lol!<br /><br />That being said, I thought I would toss something against the wall and see what stuck!

It's time for a new color! This month we are going with my FAVORITE...well one of them...<span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">ORANGE</span>!!</p><p><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Orange</span> combines the energy of red and the happiness of yellow. It is associated with joy, sunshine, and the tropics. <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Orange</span> represents enthusiasm, fascination, happiness, creativity, determination, attraction, success, encouragement, and stimulation.</p> <p>To the human eye, <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">orange</span> is a very hot color, so it gives the sensation of heat. Nevertheless, <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">orange</span> is not as aggressive as red. <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Orange</span> increases oxygen supply to the brain, produces an invigorating effect, and stimulates mental activity. It is highly accepted among young people. As a citrus color, <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">orange</span> is associated with healthy food and stimulates appetite. <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Orange</span> is the color of fall and harvest. In heraldry, <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">orange</span> is symbolic of strength and endurance.</p> <p><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Orange</span> has very high visibility, so you can use it to catch attention and highlight the most important elements of your design. <span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);"><br /></span></p><p><span style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0);">Orange</span> is very effective for promoting food products and toys.</p> <p class="bodynojust"><b style="color: rgb(204, 102, 0);">Dark orange</b> can mean deceit and distrust.</p><p class="bodynojust"> <b style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Red-orange</b> corresponds to desire, sexual passion, pleasure, domination, aggression, and thirst for action.</p><p class="bodynojust"> <b style="color: rgb(255, 204, 0);">Gold</b> evokes the feeling of prestige. The meaning of gold is illumination, wisdom, and wealth. Gold often symbolizes high quality.</p><p class="bodynojust">Go the distance with ORANGE. Hope you are inspired! I sure am! Be on the look out for more inspiration soon!</p><p class="bodynojust">Adrienne<br /></p>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272249706470388841.post-51399060754716636712007-07-18T09:13:00.000-07:002007-07-18T09:20:43.977-07:00Love Green<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOdqbUuzUDQk_4DmAyYaaSIrafFZ4Uuqoy5XdCDVqegGn8aPi4lhkEY9GMr_xC-nLNTJYkAukBe2knTvQ-SYjBdbD1px-gdS3VvvpJbxTb-zuG5S14BS_eGywIYQxeO2FV9wM3Ifua7Xz1/s1600-h/gardenlo009.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5088572308867765314" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; CURSOR: hand; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOdqbUuzUDQk_4DmAyYaaSIrafFZ4Uuqoy5XdCDVqegGn8aPi4lhkEY9GMr_xC-nLNTJYkAukBe2knTvQ-SYjBdbD1px-gdS3VvvpJbxTb-zuG5S14BS_eGywIYQxeO2FV9wM3Ifua7Xz1/s400/gardenlo009.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Green is one of my happy colors.

Green has strong emotional correspondence with safety. Dark green is also commonly associated with money.<br /><br />Green has great healing power. It is the most restful color for the human eye; it can improve vision.<br /> Green suggests stability and endurance. Sometimes green denotes lack of experience; for example, a 'greenhorn' is a novice. In heraldry, green indicates growth and hope. <br /><br />Green, as opposed to red, means safety; it is the color of free passage in road traffic.<br /><br /> Green is directly related to nature, so you can use it to promote 'green' products. <br /><br />Dull, darker green is commonly associated with money, the financial world, banking, and Wall Street.<br /><br />Dark green is associated with ambition, greed, and jealousy.<br />Yellow-green can indicate sickness, cowardice, discord, and jealousy.<br />Aqua is associated with emotional healing and protection.<br />Olive green is the traditional color of peace.<br /><br />GO GREEN GO!!!!

I KNEW I was going to have to capture them, before they went into the pot. I knew they would be perfect for the blog! <br /><br />there is something about corn on the cob, that brings up so many memories of summertime BBQs. I mean for real, cause at a good ole fashioned BBQ, corn is usually the only veggie there. <br /><br />I like to cook mine with a little bit of salt and suger in the pot. When they are done, I drain the pot, and then I add more butter and some more salt and sugar, while still in the hot pot. HMMM HMMM GOOD.<br /><br />I don't see corn on the cob much during the winter months, so its always a treat when the weather is warm!<br /><br />...and all this to say, don't forget to scrapbook those summertime memories!!! They will be good to have when the winter hits...<br /><br />-stephanieUnknownnoreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272249706470388841.post-12973576505646681682007-06-21T00:20:00.000-07:002007-06-21T00:41:42.280-07:00My super late intro and a project to share...<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWR0kT-bKu4QxDPmCJZlQDHPtZ6A0u8US0e_nqPzlgd5VwCDZXA0WFLD1U0eYfIRkgOH3ncdUDFVW7UuVvT5tIgzJSPy6TO95Pn7bq7tJMGOuEl5cjdDf5Mh2tR1N5VOWsrlZaG-mpBCME/s1600-h/PLAY.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5078419507250993122" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; CURSOR: hand" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWR0kT-bKu4QxDPmCJZlQDHPtZ6A0u8US0e_nqPzlgd5VwCDZXA0WFLD1U0eYfIRkgOH3ncdUDFVW7UuVvT5tIgzJSPy6TO95Pn7bq7tJMGOuEl5cjdDf5Mh2tR1N5VOWsrlZaG-mpBCME/s320/PLAY.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Hello!<br /><br />I know I'm quite a bit late in posting an intro, but here I am at last. The fabulous Adrianne and <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">Toya</span> came up with this wonderful <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">Scrapalong</span> idea. What better way to share than to let everyone who wants to participate join in the fun? I think it is wonderful how these two young, creative souls, are always so willing to create ways to let everyone feel included. So thank you both for starting this great new blog!<br /><br />Now, who am I? My name is Maria. I am the mother of a 10 year old adorable girl who gives meaning to my life. That 10 year old child is also the reason why I started <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">scrapbooking</span> a decade ago. From the minute she was born, I became <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">obsessed</span> with the idea of recording memories in every way possible. I have always loved to journal and take pictures, but the idea of putting it all into scrapbook pages was born when my daughter came into this world. The rest is history.<br /><br /><span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">Scrapbooking</span> has become a part of my every day life. And now I have also been an avid blogger since the Summer of 2005, I have been teaching <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_5">scrapbooking</span> classes at my <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_6">LSS</span> since the Fall of 2005 and most recently, in May 2007, I became one of my <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_7">LSS</span>' creative team members. I also work full time at a law firm as a Paralegal and have a two hour daily commute to work. This may explain why it's taken me this long to get it together so I could post my fist entry into the <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_8">Scrapalong</span> blog.<br /><br />So my entry for today will be a layout with some of my favorite subjects...my garden babies, my flowers. I was inspired by the People's magazine ad for their "Most Beautiful People" edition. I just used the concept to feature the "Most Beautiful Flowers." Hope you like it!</div>Just Me Againhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11193845080481780311noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272249706470388841.post-59820901696604524322007-06-14T20:07:00.001-07:002007-06-14T20:10:26.708-07:00Art Card<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1NAWyjF0O4Qfiqfv_WvQ6Jhg2ws39oYSHVivKlb-VOEHVSi-aQxgXzLxiXz0anIunR69oKHJOqOQjc_j-arzyRR9di0xDP30wzFNrU4Qn7kckqdOzqEXEgc9KGNRj09jTwZVRi1YSLnKv/s1600-h/hp_scanDS_752814553953.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg1NAWyjF0O4Qfiqfv_WvQ6Jhg2ws39oYSHVivKlb-VOEHVSi-aQxgXzLxiXz0anIunR69oKHJOqOQjc_j-arzyRR9di0xDP30wzFNrU4Qn7kckqdOzqEXEgc9KGNRj09jTwZVRi1YSLnKv/s400/hp_scanDS_752814553953.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5076122625839235106" /></a>Unknownnoreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2272249706470388841.post-70567164635850064112007-06-13T08:04:00.001-07:002007-06-13T08:10:28.877-07:00I'M A BAD, BAD SCRAP-A-LONG-ER!!!<a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y13/emma81399/e.jpg" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"></a><br /><br />hey ya'll, my name is elizabeth and i'm *so* sorry that it has taken me this long to drop in and introduce myself. <br /><br />but rest assure, i've been stopping by and getting all inspired by all the beautiful yellow that has been shown.<br /><br />so i guess ya'll would like to know a lil bit more about me.<br /><br />again, my name is elizabeth, i'm married to a fab-boo man who puts up with ALOT...lol. i have two lil bug-a-boos, mikey and bella. i live on the gulfcoast of mississippi and greta and i are the bestest of friends. we are almost done building our dream house and i can't wait to get my new scrappy/crafty room all organized and ready to be worked in.<br /><br />i have been crafty since i was a lil girl. i couldn't imagine living life without some sort of craftiness in it. i started scrappin' about 7 years ago and have been hooked ever since. i think my favorite part (aside from the tension/stress reliever it provides for me) is the fondling and buying of scrappy goods!
